My neck hurts.... haha

Cycle to work Damn KTM Komuter charges RM2 for a BIKE fr KEPONG to KL SENTRAL

Bike + ME = RM4.20 per trip (Return 8.40) which is EXPENSIVE for a day journey!

Look like the plan to cycle to work have to scrap until MRT2 is ready..... such pity

Hahaha talk about cheap bike I just bought 1... 16" folding for RM375!!! Muahahaha come with China Gear summore... dont know if it can last or not but heck... once kaput will change to Shimano Hub...

It is a 16" Metal folding.... seat pole too short will need to change a longer one hahaha

but I think will serve the purpose for now....

since I already have a Qicycle for daily commute this one is for family riding....

Not really laaa depend also... Steel frame is quite solid... the connector need a replacement so it can hold tight... unless the frame is so poorly made that it is not straight...else the steel frame should be fine... Rust just sand paper and send it to powder coat will last at least 9-10 years... dont paint as it will not last....

you need to know how to take care of steel parts.... majority cars made from metal I dont see cars getting rust everywhere

it is a JAVA bike ori or not dont know aaaaaa but JAVA is quite reliable

I dont think cycling is expensive hobby....

I started like 20 years ago with a Le' Run Mountain Bike.... then it got stolen like few years ago...

Then Since I'm in KL I'm looking for a folding bicycle... I bought mine for around 2K it is Peddle assist since now I bike to work sweat less is good since no one like smelly people around...

also I have a el chepo folding at home and my sis got another one around 300RM... quite satisfy with it...

If you need for a daily commute get slightly expensive since it is more reliable and less breakdown is good... but it will earn back it cost since I'm saving petrol...

for ride in the park my second one is el cheapo RM350 folding... it is Metal... it is very hard to fold and the China gear sucks... but I'm quite happy with my purchase since it get the job done... I just need a workout I'm not participating in some championship... and so far it work for me.... also I mount a baby seat behind so my kids can enjoy as well... if it broke I'll fix it... I doubt the China gear will last but a set of 7 speeder shimano is not expensive around 50... or so... lets see how it will last

Much as everyone love DIY not everyone home has the perfect condition to say have a small workshop to build a bike... Ahem apartment....

Problem with the world now is ego and show off.... There are more expensive hobby out there I played RC helicopter before very crazy expensive those 3D heli ... As for bicycle it depend on your budget those uncle ride a fix speed bike cost rm250 fully rusted they can ride faster than me up hill damnnnnnn

Why are we talking about folding and speed???

Each bike has its own advantage... no one is dumb enough to say a RB can go mountain biking... good luck getting fall off....

Each bike has their own advantage.... and we choose the bike based on our needs... A folding is versatile to bring into public transport anytime... good luck getting a RB into MRT/LRT during peak hrs....

I bought a folding cause I live in apartment... space is a premium and I fold up the foldie to put into my car boot... try that with a mountain without a rack...

for Foldie people did endurance in it... it will be around 25-30kp/h sustain... which is OK for a bike...

if you want competition go buy a RM100K road bike

You may be right for a stock foldie vs stock RB/MTB

but if you wan to go as fast as RB for a foldie there are some mod can be made... I have seen friends mod with higher gearing which made the folding as fast as a RB and according to him it is as good as a RB.... just need to mod the gear system to have it ride further and easier....

so you bough a bike to wrap it in condom to protect it..... huhuhu.... just ride laaaaa paint old already send for a sand blast and repaint looooo

Each bike has their purpose... Folding is made for convenience to have the ability to fold to a smaller size to fit for transport....

be it a car, MRT, train or bus....

If you dont want to fold or never take advantage of the folding... then there are other options.... huhu

No such sound one wor.... maybe get some cable tie and tie up some loose end

buy a E-Bike conversion kit with 1000w Hub and Get a DC2DC inverter and wack a super large battery and be the fastest Dahon!!! hahahaha

I use Oscar RM300 folding cheap bike with China 7 speed Gear.... for a second bike / wife bike ok laaaaaaa slowly upgrade when got cash but frame is steel and solid make sure all the lock is tight

Mine is 16"

I have tried not much difference on park ride but on long distance ride your leg may feel it

Oscar brand new is RM250-300...... Brampton add another 0 behind and adjust the front number to 8-9

Woohoo QiCycle EF1 has a new Hack

up to 30KM/H top speed after custom firmware....

Tested it and it was awesome!

Bought 1 Qicycle EF1, now clock 1000km, the best purchase ever.. riding to work everyday never fail...

Bought a twist throttle as dont want to get sweat when reach office...
